We accept students from other studios so if you have friends who want to dance at Spotlight bring them with you. There is no charge to participate in the auditions.

We will be chartering a bus to New York City on Saturday, December 19th. All students, parents, and friends are invited. It’s always a great trip and is an easy way to see NYC at Christmas time and there are plenty of things to do including:

See the Christmas Tree or ice skate at Rockefeller Center.

Attend the Rockette’s Christmas Spectacular Show or a Broadway show.

Look at the store windows that are decorated for Christmas.

Sightsee – Lots of options including a city bus tour that takes you the top sites.

Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

Participation is limited to the first 50 people to complete and return the Registration and Liability Waiver forms along with the full payment. We can only accept payments made by cash or check for the trip. In the event the trip is cancelled all payments will be returned.

Our original plan was to take one bus to NYC for the Spring Spectacular show at Radio City Music Hall. Since we filled the bus so quickly and have quite a few people on the waiting list, we are going to attempt to get a second bus. As with the first bus the cost is $145 per person and includes chartered roundtrip bus transportation and a ticket to the show. We will be leaving at approximately 6AM from the studio parking lot and returning around midnight. If you are on the waiting list or would like to be, please complete the registration form and return it to the front desk with the full payment (check only) no later than received by March 17th at 9pm. Keep in mind that friends who are not part of the Spotlight Family are welcome to go on the trip. In the event that there are not enough participants for the second bus we will refund your full payment.

Refunds are being handed out at the front desk starting this afternoon. A full refund is being given to anyone who decided to go on the trip and a partial refund of $45 is being given to anyone who still wants to go to NYC and make their own plans. Also, there are still seats left on the bus of Saturday and they are $75 each.

The Rockettes show was cancelled until 2015, which is very disappointing. Our plan is to run the bus if we can get enough participants. Many of those who were going to see the Rockettes have decided to go anyway and plan to get tickets for a different show or sightsee. Anyone is welcome to come with and the cost is $75 per person. Full refunds ($120) will be given to those who choose not to go to NYC and partial refunds ($45) will be given to those who do go.
